The British, like anyone and everyone else residing in a glass house, ought to stop throwing rocks around.
Europeans can gloat all they want about the cancellation of US FMS contracts, but the reality is that major European weapons systems like the Typhoon and the Gripen remain highly dependent on US manufactured subsystems. Case in point:
What that said, our illustrious leader, President Donald J. Trump can easily ITAR the sale of European "alternatives" to the F-35.
Brother, you are too kind with and merciful to these TIP salafists. In no way am I praising them, but these mujahideen are generally speaking fairly, if not in some cases extremely experienced and capable fighters as those who didn't make the cut were weeded out by way of natural selection in combat.
With these sort of guys, jihad is not the path, so much as the destination. To salafists of their variety, there is no greater honor and no goal nobler than to "ascend to jannah" by way of jihad. As such for all practical purposes, most of them will rather die than return to China. Might as well as grant them their wish.
The wives and kids are a different story. However, even then, best to let the dependents stay in Syria, rather than become liabilities to the public safety of Chinese citizens while being housed and fed at the expense of Chinese taxpayers. It's not like they consider themselves Chinese anyhow.
What's the point of these warnings?!
There's no way someone occupying Li Ka-shing's station in life or that of his lieutenants and sons got clean hands.
Might as well as get to business . . .
